Ukrainian military intelligence published a component breakdown of Russia’s Filin cruise missile, identifying 35 American and 22 Chinese components. The ground-launched missile flies 1,200km.
Dutch intel got into SVR (Cozy Bear) computers and watched via remote cameras as Russian hackers exfiltrated DNC data in real time. Our unacknowledged Sixth Eye in Five Eyes survived the 2016 crisis. They’ll be okay. And all they allegedly did here was recruit a GRU spy with treasure.

Disappointingly, Starshield still doesn’t work well and seems to cut out for units above 160kmh. The improvement observed earlier today seems inconsistent and unstable.
Russian oil giant Rosneft is reportedly slowing some refinery repairs because repeated Ukrainian strikes are making the cycle of damage and reconstruction too expensive to sustain -Bloomberg
Ukraine’s refinery campaign has reportedly caused major damage to Russia’s oil sector.
Q: Do you tell Elon Musk to bring back Starlink for Ukraine?
TRUMP: I don't want to say. I don't want to comment on it. The bottom line is he put it back
Ukraine is single handedly dragging Europe into sovereignty kicking and screaming.
The debt we will owe to the Ukrainian people once this is all over will be immeasurable.

The new Zelenskyy interview with @StevenBartlett is one of the best he has ever given.
I know it’s a bit long, but if you have time to watch the whole thing, I highly recommend it.
Steven gives Zelenskyy the space to share the human cost and real emotions of this war from his own perspective and through his daily contact with the people most affected. I don't think any other host has managed to get him to open up like this.
It’s well worth watching, even if you don't follow the war closely. Truly a great interview and a powerful conversation.
Russian milblogger 'shturmmotherfucker' complains about the situation at the front:
"I'm really concerned about what's happening. Our neighbors have lost a lot of ground due to communication issues. We were almost wiped out on the flanks, and we had to retreat again.
Our neighbors lost 30 to 200 men in just a few days. You can imagine that number. They're being targeted precisely because they know our positions, down to the individual trenches, because we occupied them. And there's nothing we can do about it.
They might give us some time to dig in, but only to kill us when we're exhausted. Thankfully, I'm safe, but two of our guys were hit by shrapnel, one lost 300 grams of tissue, and another is 100% going to need an amputation. I can't even describe the faces of the guys who reported it to me.
He was screaming and begging them for a controlled... you know."
Among the gems that the Dutch government found on Jared Kushner's phone, payments to a known hitman, a warlord, hundreds of millions from bank accounts in Central Asia..on and on..
The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. https://t.co/8AyV60gg1X
